AN exchange which hes evidently been there rises to remark: "A newspaper man has discovered that it is inpos sible for newspapers to boom a town unless ;he people do little booming on theIr own account in the newspapers. News papers can't work for the city and board themselves, no more than 8 man can lift himself over the fence by his boot straps. There is a principle in ,olTed in this matter and We are not of when We say i.is generally ihe business man who Is unwilling to invest R pickle ID a boom that is most hbersl with bis lIp in blowing up the newspapers for the lack of push and drive in town"

A study in shoes.

It is to be feared, on the whole, that the unfeeling people who say that Artie was spoiled and had no bringing up may not be far wrong. Nevertheless he had two aunties. For reasons of his own he callei them respectively ''Vevvy" and "Pltty Baby"
 Pity Baby was c weak coaxer, but Vevvy was great disciplinarian and firm believer in the application Of the slipper. .,,
 One morning in particular the Slipper Sonata was going on in her room, With wild accompaniment of juvenile renlon- strance very trying to the hearts Of Pitty Baby and Bridget, outside the door wl,n tears in their eyes and fingers in thelr ears.
 Presently, when justice was satisned' the dear little culprit was released, howl tug like a deryish, and, banging open the door, he burst upon the two outside.
 oOch, darlin'," said Bridget, what ever in this world did she do to you' sirry'' ,,,.I

STRANGE tales of back woods ignor- snce occasionally come from the New South. But few days since a farmer living in the mountain regions of West Virginia. took a negro and offered him for sale in Cumberland, Maryland. And now the story comes from Gilmer couD- ty, Georgla, of farmer offering as se- curity for debt, mortgage on a ne- gro. Strange to say it was accepted by the crossroads merchant to whom it was offered, and he in turn, endesvored to transfer it for the payment sf debt to a merchBntin Atlanta. The negro was accurately described in the mort gage. In the description his name WAS given ss Joe Addison, and his age wGs put Rt 65 years. The description closes with these words: He came to me by ny father, and has been my property for twenty yesrs." The Atlanta mer- chant returned the mortgage. telling the party that he preferred some more tan gible security. It is hard to tell wheth- CT the fool nigSers or white fgnoramuses are to be blamed the most.

The Total Wreck.

We learn from Mir. Vail that the prospects m the Total Wreck mine, Arizons, are very encouraging. Since the mine was closed down, seversl years ago, after the mill had run out S270. .0G0 of silver, 1t was leased to parties who. on certain conditions, were willing to take the chances O. making 1t pay. MT. Vail found befure he closed down, that the mine had reached point where. to contiDue work on tie scale II had been operated. would soon swamp the com pany. and he tberefor- made an arrange ment with Q company Of miners to de- velop it systematically, however, that his own trusted and experienced supeEin- iendent, Mr. OD1uzheTty. ehouid direct the manner in which it should be work
 cd, At the 550-,oot level the miners re- gently run against 5 very promising body Of ore, It has been uncovered to show seven hundred and fifty tons Of ore in eight, with RD unknown quantl
 ty behind i.. Samp'es of this ore, taken at random from different parts of the ledge, have been carefully assayed and fifteen of these assays hsve given sn average of S15l to the tor. This Is very encouraging to the company that IS working the mite, and they will pros pect the ledge for some distance far ther, and if it holds out anything like these asssys show. they will start The mill es soon as they have got out sufficient quantity of ere to keep II running. This will be good news to the many stockholders of the Total Wreck in Los Angeles.-LOs Angeles Herald.

 The Charity Organization society, which is located in 6 quiet part of University place, and which is managed by some well known phiianihropic ladies, is a society that Is doing much good in the way of assisting the worthy poor and in putting them in positions wbers tAey can help themselves 4 reporter, who called at the headquarters today, found the ladies in charge busy, as usual, in issuing "wcOdyard' cards, in investigating appeals for assistance, and in listening to the various tales of distress that were told by a small army of applicants It was motley array.
